A policeman in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, was burned alive Tuesday by unknown attackers in front of several witnesses who saw him writhing in agony as he died. The killing was the 33rd of a municipal police officer in Juarez this year and the 59th in the last 15 months, according to the Chihuahua State Attorney General's Office.
Jose Everardo was kidnapped Monday night, according to prosecutors. Witnesses said Everardo was dumped from a vehicle around 8:30 a.m.. His hands and feet bound, his attackers sprayed him with a flammable liquid and set him afire.
A photographer, who did not want to be identified for security reasons, told CNN he was warned not to arrive at the scene "very quickly" because the attackers were still there. In the past, journalists who arrived at crime scenes moments after an attack have faced retribution.
"The body was upside down, burned completely," prosecutors said.
The photographer eventually arrived at the scene and snapped a grisly picture of a charred body, face down in the middle of a Juarez street. The officer appears to still be wearing his police uniform.
A note for the police was left at the crime scene, prosecutors said, but the contents of the note have not been disclosed. Source
Note: The name of the Police Officer was 'JOSE EVERARDO SANCHEZ', he died for doing his job, the cowards tied his hand and ankles before dousing him in gasoline.
Threats from a Criminal Group where found written on a Card a few feet from his body.
